I'd go top records in each conference, get first round byes. If it's possible to do....It puts a real premium on maintaining total excellence and command of the regular season.

With 12 teams making it, we'd have 6 playoff teams from each conference. Which could work out funky....we need 8 or 4 at some pt to move forward cleanly....

Which is why I would do the two 1st round buys. These top seeds, would then play the lowest seeded team of the 6 in their conference, who advanced to Round 2.

Where we'd have 4 teams in each conference.

This makes sense in terms of letting a nice number of teams taste playoff action, increases the action in the playoffs, puts in some cool plot lines that will develop between the top alphas and the underdog or two who will sneak in, an it also doesn't make it a charity thing, as the true #1 seeds get a very reward for their excellence.

it'd be like top seed in each division makes it then the next 10 best records
